Purpose: Disruptions in global sagittal spinal alignment can lead to changes in global sagittal spinal alignment, often manifesting as sagittal malalignment, where the trunk shifts forward. We proposed that these alignment changes are linked to degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis (DS). The objective was to assess global spinal alignment in low-grade DS using sagittal vertical axis (SVA) classification.

This case report describes a 52-year-old female with a neurenteric cyst in the cerebellopontine angle, presenting with headaches and balance disturbances. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a cystic lesion causing hydrocephalus, and surgical removal was performed using a retrosigmoid approach.

Prevalence of thoracic degenerative MRI findings and association with pain and disability: a systematic review.

Skeletal Radiol

January 2025

Center for Muscle and Joint Health, Department of Sports Science and Clinical Biomechanics, University of Southern Denmark, Campusvej 55, 5230, Odense M, Denmark.

Objectives: To systematically review the literature on the prevalence of degenerative MRI findings in the thoracic spine and their association with pain and disability.

Materials And Methods: The Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, and CENTRAL databases were searched. Two independent reviewers screened the articles, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias (RoB) using a modified version of the Hoy tool for articles on prevalence and QUADAS-2 for articles on associations.
